The UNE Art Galleries highlight UNE’s institutional strengths and interests in the context of exceptional contemporary art, with an emphasis on earth, environmental, and social sciences, medicine, education, arts, and humanities. We promote a broad, diverse, inclusive, and thought-provoking range of perspectives within the specific context of each exhibition.
We maintain two gallery locations on UNE’s Biddeford and Portland campuses. Each gallery mounts approximately three exhibitions each academic year in a variety of media and focusing on a range of themes.
